METHOD FOR FIRING FROM LAUNCHING TUBE AND ROCKET SHELL FOR ITS REALIZATION (MODIFICATIONS) Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: military equipment, in particular, methods for firing of rockets from launching tubes.

SUBSTANCE: the method consists in rocket acceleration in the launching tube and imparting to the rear cover of angular velocity with its rotation relative to the wall of the launching tube from the side and the direction of the position of the shooter or to the fire control device, and then of the translational speed up to the turn of the cover by an angle of 90 deg. Realization is effected by a rocket shell, which according to the first modification has a powder high-pressure impulse gas generator functionally coupled to the rocket jet engine, and according to the second modification - a longitudinal groove made on the inner surface of the launching tube.
